Y/N's POV

*Next Day*

It was 12:00 in the afternoon; I made a sandwich that sat right next to me with a Pitt Cola beside it and I had borrowed Wendy's magazine that she was reading yesterday. I'm glad I got this magazine or I would be listening to Bill Cipher trying to apologize for the incident that happened yesterday. Thing was, I wasn't easy for forgiving someone.

After Wendy and I came home, I couldn't fall asleep. I stayed awake the whole night, terrified that I would get another glimpse at the wrecked town. It's even scarier knowing that the beautiful Gravity Falls once looked like that last year when Bill Cipher was in control. Wendy and the whole Pines family had to live in that for who knows how long. I can't even handle one dream being in that place and they probably had to last a week or two living in that!

Wendy was at the Shack doing her daily shift, Mom and Dad are out grocery shopping and Uncle Dan took Wendy's brothers to do lumberjack stuff or something. So I guess this was a good time for Bill yelling at me trying to apologize.

I take a sip of my soda as I listen a little bit to see what he's trying to say, "...little Star, please, that nightmare was just a slip-up. You saw how weak I was earlier from trying to save you from an army of gnomes; I was low on power so I couldn't exactly keep the nightmares from coming. It was a one time thing, you have my dream demon word on that-"

Oh wow! He's trying to say that the freaky nightmare with his own little version of Gravity Falls was just a "slip-up". I'll believe that when pigs fly. I turn the page of the magazine and kept ignoring. This is what he gets for breaking his side of the deal, he's lucky I didn't break my side! I should have though, I should have told them but with Bill being there...I turned into a coward. Oh well, guess ignoring him and aggravating him will have to do for now and it seems to be working.

He leans on the bed as I continue reading with my back up against the wall; he says, "Star, come on. You're not really that mad at me, are you? Star? Say something, anything!" I flip the page again and start to giggle as if I read something funny which I didn't, I thought it was funny how easy he thought I would be to trusting him again.

I could tell this only aggravated him more for the room started to heat up; at the corner of my eye I could see the red flames starting to spark in his hands and the crimson red hair at the tips of his yellow hair. His whole body then turns red and his size gets bigger as he yells. His yell was a mix between demonic and monster; I dropped the magazine and tried to back away but I was already at the wall, I couldn't move any farther. Okay, maybe I went too far with this whole revenge thing; why is he so mad that I'm not talking to him anyways?

Once he sees me in panic, he stops screaming. Why though? Didn't he love to see me coward and fear in front of him? He looks down at his attire and slowly turns back to himself. The flames vanish and he looks up at me as I see his eye turn from pitch black with a white slit to his golden eye. I calm myself down enough that I could sit back down on my bed but not enough that my heart would stop beating a million times a minute. Okay, maybe I am over exaggerating but all I know is that it is beating fast out of terror. We stare at each other not saying a word and not moving.

Bill finally sighs, looking down and scratching the back of his neck. He starts to walk over to the corner of my room, next to a window and sits down staring out it. I just stay silent; I don't know what to do, what to say! I probably shouldn't say anything, I mean I don't want to speak to him. Something is drawing me over there though, to see him. I can't help but get out of my bed and walk over. I just stand in front of him for a while being dumb and not knowing exactly what to do. I decide to sit across from him and I just stare for awhile; I can't help but be weird and strange like that I guess.

I look down at his hands as they clench into fists turning white with how much force he was using. Bill's eye darts toward his hands as he releases them from their clenched form and he looks back up at me. His eye is soft and weak; he's tired and...upset? "Y/n...I'm sorry. I didn't mean to do that. One because I would lose energy from it which I did and two...two I just didn't want to do it. I didn't exactly mean to show you Weirdmageddon either; when I'm weak and low on power, I'm not able to hold up my end of any of my deals and I couldn't keep you from getting a nightmare or dream. I-"

I stop listening once he mentions "Weirdmageddon". I think he stopped talking anyways, probably because he's reading my mind but I can't help but think about it. Everything was on fire, the flying eyeballs were turning every last townsfolk to stone. All of Gravity Falls was empty; where was Uncle Dan and Wendy? Where was Dipper, Mabel, Stan, and Ford? Where was Bill during all this chaos, in his pyramid? Was he right next to the numbers that basically told me I was going to die? To think, the whole world was oblivious to all this happening. Even I was oblivious until Wendy told me afterwards...

"Why are you so afraid of my beautiful Weirdmageddon?" Bill finally says snapping me out of my daze.

"Why do you destroy everything you touch?!" I snap back at him. I wasn't sure exactly what I said until I heard it come out of my mouth. I was mad, I was tricked, I was a fool. This demon could never truly feel sorry for what he has done.

I got up and stormed out of my room. I slammed the door behind me but I didn't move. I slid down the door and just sat there with my knees to my chest and my head down. I silently sobbed because I was exhausted and I was furious. Why did I have to be so dumb and make that stupid deal?! Before I know it, my eyes grow heavy and my breathing calms down as I slowly enter darkness...

•••

I wake up and notice I'm no longer in the hallway with my back against the door. I was now on my bed with my blanket on top of me and my phone and sandwich next to me. I sit up and check my phone: 1:00. I was asleep for less than an hour and...and I didn't have any nightmares nor dreams. Speaking of nightmares, where's the dream demon who gives them?

I look behind me to see Bill sleeping at the end of my bed with his back against the wall and his arms crossed. His breathing is steady and I can hear him lightly snoring. From the angle I'm at, I can see his hidden eye behind his bangs with a scar on top of it. I crawl towards him and get a closer look at his scar; it looks painful and yet it doesn't seem to bother him.

I take my attention off the scar and just look at him. Even if he is a dream demon who loves to torture and feel pain, he still looks peaceful in his sleep like every other human being. How could he be human anyways? My mind decides to ask a million questions at once that I'll probably forget about later as I start to feel my eyes get heavy and I start to yawn.

Less than an hour doesn't seem to make up for missing a whole nights rest. I lay my head on Bill's shoulder not even thinking about what happened today or yesterday. I close my eyes and tried to rest a little bit more, that's when I feel an arm wrap around me bringing some warmth to me. I look up and I lock eye contact with Bill Cipher's one golden eye. I gasp and almost fall back but his arm keeps me from falling; he starts to chuckle softly and just looks at me while smirking.

That's when my tired mind remembers exactly what he did yesterday; I get out of his grasp and walk over to the window. I feel him grab onto my wrist and he forcefully turns me around. I'm about ready to burst. You know what, that's not a bad idea.

"Do you really think I'm going to forgive you after that? You broke your side of the deal! I trusted you, Bill Cipher; I trusted you and you broke that trust. You gave me a nightmare and about what?! Your chaotic version of my amazing, incredible, mysterious Gravity Falls. You showed me the real you and I've had enough. I should just go out there and scream out that Bill Cipher is still alive. I mean, WHY NOT?!"

Bill's grip tightens on my wrist and I thought he was going to hurt me. I shut my eyes and tried to pull away from his grip. He pulls me closer to him and just lays his head on top of mine while he wraps his arms around me. Was this his way of trying to calm me down? "My precious little Star, please, I don't expect you to trust me the same. Believe me though when I say that I never meant for you to have that nightmare the other day. Look, I'll make another deal with you: if my powers ever slip-up again then you can break our deal and tell the whole Pines family that Bill Cipher is alive and human." He let's go of me making the room seem colder and sending chills through my body. He extends his hand out to me and a blue flame takes over just like last time. "Deal?"

Make another deal with the dream demon who broke the last deal; at least this deal was clear that if he gave me another nightmare or dream that he would break the deal for good and I would be able to tell Ford and all of them about him. I grab his hand and tighten my grip, "Deal."

I let go and I start to yawn. "You should get some sleep, Y/n."

"No, I'm fine, really." I say almost falling over. He picks me up bridal style and brings me over to my bed. "Go to sleep, I'll wake you up when you have to go see Sixer. I'll be in that corner if you need me and I promise you won't have any dreams. Trust me~" His voice was soothing and every word he spoke made me want to go to sleep even more. The last thing I see is his golden eye before I finally drift off to sleep. I feel something soft pressed against my forehead for only a split second before releasing. A pair of lips, soft and warm. Did he kiss me? I'm not sure, all I know is that my eyes are getting heavier as my head sinks into my pillow...

•••

Beep. Beep. Beep. My phone was going off. I woke up and turned that dumb alarm clock off, it was very annoying. I look over in the corner and notice Bill isn't there. Where did he go? He wasn't anywhere in my room. I look at the time on my phone and it reads 3:25. I have five minutes to get to the shack!

Thanks a lot, Cipher, you still have to mess with me. I grab my phone, sandwich, and jacket and run out of the house as I cross my fingers hoping I'm not late.
